As for the map itself, it features content from the “ALL IN” music video, which was revealed back in August.
The music video consists of a dystopian desert setting to showcase the players’ experiences of facing pressures and criticisms. However, the video also highlights the “Gen.G army,” which refers to the fans who support and motivate the esports players.
The meaning behind “ALL IN”
During the making of the “ALL IN” music video, Jay Park took the time to speak with the players of Gen.G’s LCK team. He spoke with the competitors individually to gain a better understanding of where they came from, their love for gaming and what drove them to compete in esports on a global stage.
“It’s intriguing to see these young gamers train and go out to put it all on the line,” Jay Park said back in August.
He added how he’s always trying to explore new boundaries, and doing so with Gen.G through “ALL IN” was a privilege. The message he wanted to put out was that players should give it their all whether they win or lose. That way, they will have no regrets.
